More great news

We have had a £200 donation and £50 gift aid after HUMBER P4VWL helped someone:

"Hi Paul, This is a token of my appreciation of all the hard work you have done in not only sorting out my pension but also in your fundraising efforts for such a good cause".

Well done Paul this really does mean a lot and shows your hard work and dedication through all of this

You're the dude

Not strictly the cruise, but had to share this!!

Folks

Having joined you all for the full circuit on the Saturday (our first weekend out with new RIB), we were fortunate enough to have the whole weekend based at Caernarfon . Launching at Ty Calch throughout (Chris Seddon you are a star, get well soon)

As if the fantastic day around Anglesey wasn't enough (big thanks to all who pulled it together), we'd had great weather on the Friday (big up to Kawasaki Richard for some extra tuition). Had a look at launching on the Sunday, but gave it a miss on Chris's very sound advice. We launched in the pond like conditions on the Monday when the following happened, between the Caernarfon Bar and Ty Coch

Hope you enjoy

The video is cut down from over 30 mins of footage

Hoping it's not once in a RIB lifetime experience!!

brilliant vid, well done, we've seen them a couple of times between Trefor and Caernarfon Bar but never as close as that

nice to see the 2 new Ribquests together, hopefully we'll catch up at a Ty Calch again

truly excellent sight, we have seen dolphins many times in holyhead bay, though only once that close, and never for so long. head to the skerries and you will get seals being nosy and having a close up look at your boat. think most people would agree that getting close to the wildlife is a big part of the enjoyment of being out at sea.

Superb video! I was thinking halfway through the footage get the camera under water and you even managed that - well done!

Hope I get chance to spot a dolphin one day if I am ever going slowly enough

The reality was that we were so excited, it was 20 minutes in before we remembered the camera was waterproof!!!
